50,000

Went for 2 weddings today.....huhuhu......I'm allergic to weddings ahahaha. And yet I had to go since I am my Mom's "driver". Well, somebody has to do the job. :D Luckily now I'm a much better driver than before. The more I drive, the more experience, the better I am at it. 

I just took a peek at my YouTube videos today and I got a shock to see that my first video has hit 50,000 views already! OMG! Wow.....I'm surprised that the video is so popular compared to the rest. I was hoping the other videos I made would have much more views but I guess people prefer the first one better. I'm so happy about that. :)

Been so busy with work and taking care of health that I didn't have much time to make new craft videos. Been meaning to do so since I had a lot of requests from readers of my card blog but I just don't have the time yet. It's not as easy as it seems.......and I need some peace and quiet in the house while I'm doing it.....and the mood has to be good as well ehehehehe.....otherwise it never turns out as planned. :)

1st

First day of June. 

Been quite a productive day I must say....despite not feeling too good in the morning. I'm still crazy about iris folding.....so I've been focusing on that now....and I can't seem to stop once I like something, I just keep going. It's something like how it was when I first started quilling. It can be pretty addictive too ....I kid you not. The only thing is, I'm not folding anything since I'm using ribbons instead of paper....hehe....saves me a lot of time! There's still some other craft techniques that I'm interested to try out using ribbons. Gotta give it a go.

I can't stop Pinteresting either. It's like routine now everyday. Must stop by there once a day for inspiration and for mind therapy. Facebook, Yahoo Mail, Blogger, Nuffnang, YouTube and now Pinterest. I wonder what's next.

More

Last day of May already.....huhu.....

How can this be???? I feel like time just fly too fast and I can't keep up with it. I'm too slow. 

June is going to be the start of a new me. More organized, more disciplined and more errrrrr......just more...ahahaha. A better me.

Thinking of reorganizing my studio since it's super duper messy. Trying to figure out how to make it work for me. How to make sure it will look nice all the time......how how how.......maybe I need more shelves....more drawers....more place to put my craft stuff. There's just too many of them scattered all over the place. I get dizzy just looking at them.

This time I think I really have to be serious about it. I'm getting sick and tired of looking at my messy room. Something just has to be done to solve this problem. :( Hope to find a solution in June......and that's tomorrow! Yikes! Wish me luck!! :D

Beautiful Day - U2

Yup this song would do it for me today.....just perfect ;)

Dusty

So weird.....it rained for just a few minutes just now...even the sky was dark and all......and then suddenly came the sun shining so brightly outside my window......no more rain....that was really fast.....the weather is pretty unpredictable these days. 

Started my day quite late. Don't feel too good suddenly this morning. I guess it's just one of those days. Done some of the house chores and now thinking about work. Just thinking. LOL! :D

But before I start working on the orders I seriously need to clean my ceiling fan. It's been a while since I last cleaned it and I could see that the dust clinging on the fan is getting pretty heavy. No wonder I've been sneezing quite a lot these days whenever I'm in the room. So much of dust everywhere. I need a cleaner. But I don't think that the cleaner knows how to go about cleaning my room because it's too complicated ahahahahaha. How can you clean a room that looks like a maze. The cleaner will get lost inside my room while cleaning ahahahahaha. :D

Need to search for songs on YouTube to cheer up my mood and keep me awake while I climb up the stairs and clean the ceiling fan. Oh how fun that would be. :P

Half done

I'm so not in the mood to do anything much today. Something wrong I guess. Just not in the mood. But even so, I still managed to do 3 cards (half done), using the punch all over the page craft punch...hehe. I have been  patiently watching videos on how to use it and finally I get to use it correctly today. No wonder I couldn't get the patterns to turn out right yesterday. So today the punch out patterns looks perfect. So happy about that. Still need to practice more though. Must study more. >.<

30th!!

Just finished doing laundry and now I can start doing some work in my studio. I'm still playing with my new toys. Still need to experiment more and of course learn the correct way of using it. As a first timer, I did make some mistakes when using the punches at first. Testing them on some paper to find out which type is best suited for the punches. Some are ok but some are definitely a huge no no......so it's good to test them out first before thinking of design. Thank God for YouTube as well.....which is the easiest way for me to get some guidance without bothering other people ehehehe. 

Two more days left before holiday is over. I'm feeling much much better now. My hands aren't aching as much as before.....so that's a good thing. ;)

Punching!

Beyond happy today because I have finally received these craft punches after such a long wait. I've been wanting to purchase these craft punches for quite sometime now but the budget was always in the way. Finally when I was able to buy some, I had to really choose wisely on what I really need because I can't buy all at the same time. I had a tough time making a decision. There were so many gorgeous craft punch design to choose from......arrrrrgggghhhhhhh......I want them all!!!! hehehe!! 

When it comes to craft products, there's just so many that I would like to buy for crafting but in my personal opinion, I don't think that it's necessary to buy everything in order to create something beautiful. Of course it would be nice to have it all, but then again it depends as well on what you really need at the time.

For me as a designer, I started from zero and started collecting craft punch only when I was staying in KL.....I bought one at a time....once a year at first and then the collection increased as the business grew. I only bought what is really necessary and something that would help in the production of my craft. I hope these new "toys" will help me create something more special in for my craft collection and help my business grow in future. ;)

Got some new ideas of what to do with them already.....can't wait to make cards using these craft punch! Time! I need more time to play with them!!!! huhu!

29th!!

Didn't have the time to make a post yesterday.......was so busy. It's already the 29th and I still have a lot of post that's due to write before the month ends huhu.

Had to revise as well for my Quran class yesterday evening.....need to study more each day to be better at it.....the more I study and practice reading the more I'll be good at it, insyaAllah.  I'm so glad that now I'm in a new class. The one before was not as great. Thank God I asked for the change and I'm now happy with the new class. :) 

My holiday is almost over as well....huhuhu......1st of June is drawing closer and closer. How great it would be to extend the holiday hehehe......but no, I can't. I need to earn a living. But I've charted a plan for June so that I'll have more time for myself. More time for studying and for rest. Seriously need to do a good time table that works for me.

First time ever yesterday, I went to the post office and the whole place was experiencing a blackout. There weren't any electricity from 2 o'clock in the afternoon till late in the evening when I arrived there to do some deliveries. So I had to go back home with all the packages. I wonder what happened that caused the blackout. Pity seeing the Poslaju staff working inside the post office in the dark....huhu

To the max

Even though I'm still young......but I have a body of a senior citizen. I can't even handle the events I went through today. By 4.00PM I was completely exhausted to the max. I was up and about from morning, driving here and there, attended 2 weddings and more. 

Yawning every 1 minute right now......sleep I must.....but can't just yet.......still a lot of emails to reply...............................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
